In America. Welcome to Gloria's Wednesday afternoon in the Tri State Red Spaceball against
the Red Sox kickoff about six ten to night. Last night's game was dramatic.
I tweeted out when the score was nine to three, another easy Reds
victory. I revised and extended my remarks later because it was ninety eight,
nine to eight with two runners on second and third. But Diaz got it
done again last night. But things kick off about six ten to night.
The Reds are in town this weekend against the Brew Crew. There's rumors Della
Cruz, Della Cruz may come up. I think the old man is saying,
bring me Della Cruz. I've seen the attendance figures for Friday, Saturday
and Sunday. Can we get Della Cruz here? Who it's four hundred fifty
foot home runs rolling out a bed in the morning. So we'll see what
happens with that. But until then, as you know, later today,
maybe by midnight tonight, the House of Representative is going to vote on whether
or not to do the deal deal between McCarthy and Biden. What Republicans we
like the deal, and so we'll see what happens. The vote out of
the committee to send it to the House floor with seven to six, when
you're a good friend and mine, Congressman Tom Massey of Northern Kentucky voting yes,
which is a bit of a surprise. But let's break it down.
Alfredo Ortiz is CEO of Jobs Creator Network. He's all about responsibility and capital.
Listen in fiscal sanity and Alfredo Ortiz, welcome again to the Bill Cunningham
Show. And Alfredo for those who live in Northern Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana
listening in Michigan and Tennessee, can you tell the American people that three or
four good reasons why conservative like Tom Massey and I think Congressman brad Winstrup are
going to vote yes later today. Yeah, absolutely, Bill, and thank
you again for having me on your show. And look, bottom line is
we can't let the perfect be the enemy of the good. And I think
that's a really important line because this is a far from a perfect bill.
It's far less than what we wanted, but it's a hell of a lot
better if part of my language there. But then, what Biden was looking
for from day one, He kept hemming and huying for almost one hundred days,
pushing off the Speaker of the House. Is it again what we wanted?
Uh? No, we want everything right. But in life, as
you know, Bill, you can't have everything right, and so life is
about compromise, and I think this is it takes us a huge step forward
in the direction that we want. Quite frankly, Bill, what we need
to do, though, is we need to win all three branches in twenty
twenty four. We need to in the White House, the Senate, and
the House to be able to actually make changes. And quite frankly, the
other thing is, Bill, we're going to have to start making tough choices
because the Speaker of the House really only had fifteen percent of the federal budget
to work with. That's what's called nondiscretionary spending or super indiscretionary spending. The
non discretionary it was eighty five percent of that buddy, right, which is
the Social Security American and all these other entitlements. We are going to have
to make some tough choices, and so the only way we're going to do
that is we control all three branches. And so but look, this actually
does go forward in terms of reducing some of the Democrats recals Spending bill.
It brings us back down to below fiscal year twenty twenty two, if you
exclude defense and veterans health, you know, discretionary spending. And it's a
heck of a lot less than the president's fiscal year twenty four budget. He
had put in their seven hundred and twenty two billion dollars and it and this
act brings it down to about five hundred and eighty three billion, which is
just about even to fiscal year twenty twenty two. So that's actually a great,
great step. It does something that's called and it's kind of funny because
I was talking to people over the weekend that are in the know, they're
in DC, and they were celebrating this thing called Nieper reform bill. Everyone's
like, yeah, high five, yeah, And I'm like and I'm like,
what the heck is nieper reform? Like, you know, like,
and they told the little guys and they explained to me, look, if
you want to be able to ultimately pay those two dollars per gallon gasoline in
your tank, you want niper reform, which it basically allows and increases the
abilities to get permits done sooner. Whether it's for pipeline, Western plants,
etc. And then I'm like, oh, okay, that makes sense to
me because nieper reformer is not something people in Westchester are thinking about. But
I'll say this, when you bring up the fifteen percent number, we have
to understand the Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, defense spending, veterans benefits,
and a bunch of other government programs are on cruise control as far as
the eye can see that we can't afford, and so not so much of
a cut, but just holding spending to way back in twenty twenty two to
way back in twenty twenty two levels is not much of an ask. But
you have the most rout left wing Democrats saying that's unfair, it's racist,
sexist, it's homophobic. And so I'm looking at this and I'm thinking,
well, this isn't a reduction in spending. It's holding spending where it was
two years ago. But it also reduced US funding for new IRS agents.
This was a big deal. They were gonna hire eighty seven thousand new IRS
agents. What happened to that? Yeah, So that's another one that I
asked questions bon because I was like, oh no, what happened to the
eighty billion, guys are gonna pull back. And so the two billions that
they pulled back, they helped me explain, was actually for this year.
The actual budget that was allocated to hire new agents for this year's because I
guess that eighty billion was over ten years, and so this actually is the
amount that went away basically for this year. So it gives us one year
basically of a reprieve that hopefully again as we talked another budget round, we
can skeep from negotiating this number down to zero, hopefully, because you and
I both agree that I don't think we need more irgent, no anything,
we need more mortar agents border and the other thing about that about how about
lifting Americans out of poverty? In your article I'm reading this, I would
think it's an article if faith is an American that number one, If you
get something for nothing, you should give something back when available. And so
I watched the radical Left saying, you know what, it's unfair to ask
a forty eight year old healthy man or woman who doesn't have don't have children
to care for, and don't have a disability of some type or another.
It's unfair to get them to work wrk work. Explain that one. Yeah,
that one is unbelievable to me. I don't understand that. Look,
I grew up poor. Actually in San Diego. We did actually receive government
hand as when I was a kid because we had to because we were poor.
But the one thing that my mom taught me is we were always volunteering
at the distribution sites were you know, eggs, bread, milk, and
cheese surplus from the USDA was being handed out. Bill, we were the
volunteers that would receive the trucks spent it up, right, I mean we
did something for what we got. Because I'm never gonna be, you know,
sorry that we were poor, but we definitely worked for what we got.
Right, every single able bodied person that received something from the federal government
some assistance and his able body has O dependents, Absolutely, should they be
put to work, no question. And how about restarting student loan repayments.
This is not about what's before the US Supreme Court, whether the president had
the authority to spend money or not to spend money. This is about telling
kids who went to college. When people like Tony Bender were in the trades
electrical work, plumbing work, he wanted to clean house his cut grass on
the side, he said, I can't afford to go to college. Therefore
I'm going to get to work. Someone like that should not have to pay
for the humanity's degree from Cleveland State University. That's ridiculous. So what is
the deal today, deal with three starting student loan repayments? Yeah, well
that is actually worth five billion dollars B with a B five billion dollars per
month, you know, for us restarting those at the end of August,
the President has actually, I'm spend two hundred billion dollars in pausitive payments for
three years. So this was actually a major winning. Yes, it's very
different than the four hundred billion debt forgiveness, which actually our organization brought foward
to the Supreme Court, and hopefully any day now we're going to hear a
decision on that. Well, sometime sometime later in June, sometime about four
weeks you might hear. I don't think the founding fathers ever thought the president
would be spending money or not spending money. That's a congressional responsibility. Can
you speak Alfred to Ortiz of the Job's Creator Network about the fiscal insanity that
we're now dealing. Go back to the good old days of twenty o one,
which wasn't exactly the Revolutionary War, we had accumulated national debt of about
five trillion dollars. Here we are what twenty two years later, and we
have an accumulant national debt of thirty two trillion during the past twenty years with
according to the Congressional Budget Office, and the next seven or eight years.
By twenty thirty, it's going to be forty trillion dollars in national debt.
Is that sustainable? It's done. It's it's absolutely not sustainable, and it's
going to put us on a path to destruction of this country, you know.
But fortunately, I think we have some some folks there in Congress,
and hopefully we'll have some folks in twenty five that are in the White House
and then Senate that believe in things like us that we believe in, which
is fiscal sanity and stop us reckless spending because it really is out of control.
It's not sustainable. You know. The Democrats believe in this ridiculous theory
called modern monetary theory, and part of that, including Jane Yellen, by
the way, she's one of those who believes of this, that there's no
such thing as death feeling, and there shouldn't be anything such things as that
ceilings because they believe that you could just print money for your social programs.
Well, I think we've seen this experiment in many failed socialized countries where this
was experimented and they lost, right, they lost the greatness of those countries.
And so if we don't stop and try to reverse this sanity, this
insanity, we are in for a lot of trottle here. So your I
talked to a couple of congressmen yesterday and tonight. They are set this morning,
and they told me tonight it's likely to pass with Democratic support. There
will be the Freedom Caucus maybe twenty or thirty or forty no votes. Those
are made up by Democrats. And lastly, I would ask you this,
how afraid of ortiz If you have to go to the liberal Democrats to get
votes, does that mean it's a bad bill? No? I think Look,
I mean it's it's about compromise, right, I mean you're going to
have both sides have extremes, right, which is, you know, on
the lesson the right, and this actually allows them to be able to state
their ground and hold their ground and vote no. But in the end,
I'm looking at from my perspective. I'm actually an economics guy, that's where
I get my degree, and I know what a default would do for this
country. And we look, we wouldn't really default because we would actually pay
our obligations, right, our payments or bumpet. We would actually do that.
So but the problem is is that we also don't control things like Moodies,
right, which actually controls our bond ratings. And that actually is a
real thing because if you get down grade like we did last time, that
has happened, you know, about twenty years ago. It doesn't impact the
interest rates that we pay on our debt. And guess what, when you
have thirty two trillion dollars of debt and you get a quarter point you know,
interestite on your debt, it more than that any of those savings that
they're fighting for it. And so this is a good deal. It's not
a great deal, but it's not a bad deal. Right. It's compromised,
which, like I said, life is about compromise. It gets us
to step forward. But what we really need to do, Bill and I
want to make sure that we have a conversation about this at some point later,
if you invite me back. Here is about putting budget amendments back on
the table, budget bounced budget amendments. We have to do that, and
we have pushed it off and pushed it off for decades. It's always been
a conversation point. And even when we controlled, like I said, all
three branches, we didn't do anything about it. We have to get to
the point where we put forth bounced budget amendments and actually make those pass.
It was inconceivable the founding fathers could have thought about the monetary system we now
have. But if I could walk back in time to the seventeen eighty seven,
on that hot summer in Philadelphia, I would say that no budget deficits
can be run except in time and national emergency as declared by two thirds of
the House and two thirds of the Senate. That's one thing that would return
physical sanity. And it's not happening right now. But a fraid to Ortiz,
thank you very much. You're the CEO of Jobs Creator Network. You're
like a capitalist growing up in California and you saw the edges of poverty and
now you're a great American and our Freido Ortiz. Welcome and thank you for
coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. Thank you all, Fredo, thank you
very much. Bill All. Let's continue with more if a line becomes available
five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven thousand or pounds
seven hundred new at and T. There's a big story yesterday that broke about
Jeff Pastor, former council member, who has a deal with the federal government
to go to prison but also deplete guilty. And Elizabeth Holmes is also the
woman who was a billionaire now going to federal prison for the next eleven years.
And of course the sentencing of PG sitting Felts out there somewhere. And
I'm gonna have my comments on the other side. And now once again I'm
going to have mo on later today. I think to talk about the Reds.
And there are three games out of first place. They have the Brewers
in town this weekend. They got two more in Boston than three here against
the Milwaukee and then four against the Dodgers. And I know there's a feeling
in Red Central that the old Man would love to have Della cruz Uppere to
light them up on Friday Saturday and Sunday. Could you imagine the crowd on
Friday night, eighty two degrees my ballpark, the Great American with Della Cruz
hitting fourth and playing I'm not sure where can't play shortstop. We got a
pretty goodman right now, I'm not sure, but you'll find a place for
him. All on News Radio seven hundred WLW. Open up our live stream
on the iHeartRadio app and take a look at the screen. You see that
little red circle with the microphone on it, that's our talk back feature.
Push it and send us your thoughts on the current topic. Something you think
we should discuss, poor ladies, how much you love here in my dreamy
man voice, Yeah, the talk back. Check it out on seven LW's
live stream on the iHeart Radio add I always wanted to learn Spanish, Thank
you very much. Brian Combs had a great report about what's happening in northern
Kentucky, and I want to get into this issue and want to touch on
what happened yesterday with Brian Hemrick of the Power of five. Update on the
report there, talk about what's happening with Jeff Pastor, the Republican Member of
Council to put his hand in the cookie jar and got caught. Also discuss
what's happening after one o'clock with Tommy Valentine. We'll be here to talk about
the Los Angeles Dodgers and what they're doing mainstreaming bigotry, and that's coming up
later plus Moe after two o'clock today to discuss the Reds. I know,
based upon a brief conversation I had with the Reds official this morning, that
there's great debates being conducted about bringing up Ellie Della Cruz. He's a shortstop,
and god knows, we don't need another shortstop. We got plenty of
shortstops. We have one right now who might be the fine of the year
because what's happening a shortstop right now, it's just an incredible thing. It's
a great thing, it's a good thing, and it's going to continue.
But nonetheless, you could find a position for a player at some point to
play that position. Matt McClean is just at this point unbelievable. But nonetheless
we're gonna discuss that after two o'clock, and Della Cruz might be the second
coming of Eric Davis or even better, because the guy has as much power
as Eric Davis ever had hitting for average, is a five tool player.
He's only twenty one years old, and a lot of the Red's ownerships saying,
why is he doing these things in Dayton, Louisville, all over the
minor leagues, but he can't be doing it in Cincinnati. So there's great
debates being formed. I as I talk, as I discussed this about bringing
them up soon, as you know, they're looking at ticket sales on Friday,
Saturday, and Sunday against Milwaukee, believe it or not, on May
the thirty first, the Red Legs are three games out of first place and
the worst division in baseball. It doesn't look as if Saint Louis is going
to be any good for a while, or Pittsburgh they're never pirates, never
going to be good. And the Chicago Cubs just got swept by the Reds.
They look terrible. And Milwaukee's on the other side of being good.
And so sometimes matters occur that you wish did not happen as they did.
But nonetheless, you don't choose sometimes when it's ready to win, and the
Red Reds might have a division available for that, and at some point you
would think Joey Vado is going to come back, and so we'll see what
happens down the road. But nonetheless, on related matters, you heard Alfredo
Ortiz related to Fetuccini. I would think talk about what's going to happen tonight.
When you have two of the congressmen I respect the most are Thomas Massey.
I love that guy, and brad Winstrop. Brad Winstrop is on the
Intelligence Committee. He knows where the bodies are buried. He's heading up the
efforts on COVID nineteen in the response and head on brad Winstrip yesterday he said
he's voting yes head on Thomas Massey. About two weeks ago he texted me
he's going to come on Thursday or Friday. He's going to vote yes.
When Thomas Massey votes yes on something and brad Winstrip votes yes, I have
to assume it reflects come some kind of conservative principles. We are so far
out of whack financially that any move back toward physical sanity ought to make some
sense. You may know that in twenty oh one, what twenty two years
ago, the accumulated national debt was five trillion dollars. Beginning in seventeen eighty
nine. So between seventeen eighty nine in twenty oh one, which was what
two hundred and twelve years, in two hundred and twelve years. Think of
what America went through in those two hundred and twelve years. We went through
everything pandemics, will Corris, feast and famine, depression, world wars,
the Civil War. And the Americans in charge of our nation for those two
hundred and twelve years did not consider pushing their bills onto someone else's shoulders to
pay that. It was pay as you go, and it was ridiculous.
In two thousand and one when Push forty three took over that we had an
accumulate a national data five trillion dollars which is now thirty two trillion on its
way to forty And for those who mathematically are challenged, that is non sustainable.
Right now, the interest payment on those debts is about seven hundred billion
dollars, almost as much as we spend every year on defense. It is
unsustainable, and as interest rates continue to rise, more of your money sent
to Washington will be playing paying bondholders from communist Red Shina, Saudi Arabia,
and pension funds all over the world. It cannot continue. It must stop.
And until we have an actual balanced budget that happened between Clinton and nuke
Ingrich, it's going to continue unabated. Now, balance budgets are not a
very sexy item that doesn't motivate. You have individuals like Donald Trump and Bernie
Sanders both agreeing to lay off Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. Donald
Trump sings out of the same hymn book as Bernie Sanders, saying, don't
touch that, don't touch that. So what's happening now is you're affecting about
fifteen percent of the federal budget. Fifteen percent is being affected because we can't
deal with the drivers of the budget deficit, which accumulates the debt, which
is Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. Now you may be shocked to
hear this, but I do not think rich Americans like Mike McConnell should receive
Social Security if it's not needed. And I grew up in Deer Park,
born in Covington, grew up in Deer Park, rather lower middle class surroundings
with values and the idea that bills would be come due and those responsible will
not pay them as kind of ridiculous. Most of the individuals I now know,
which was a little bit different than thirty forty fifty years ago, use
their Social Security to pay their second country club dues. And that's ridiculous.
It is ridiculous that people like Tony Bender and all my producers, Dave,
etc. Are working as twenty and thirty year olds, paying essentially about fourteen
percent in Social Security taxes directly and indirectly. Employers pay their part in the
employee play his part so that we rich older Americans live a fabulous lifestyle.
There ought to be something that says that at certain points, if you're a
multi millionaire, you should not receive Social Security because it is, at one
point a welfare program in which, on average, those of my age get
all the money they put into Social Security within four or five years of retirement.
The rest of it, it's just money's flowing into our pockets, and
our medical bills are generally completely paid. If you have a Plan B,
if you got to back up to Medicare, guess what You're gonna have a
major harder or lung or a vascular system or a cancer treatment and pay nothing
for your care, which means those now working pay all your care. It's
got to stop. I'm disappointed that Donald Trump, for electoral purposes, says,
quote, no one should lay a hand on your Medicare or your Social
Security. And whenever uses outline, the applause meter goes to the top.
Tell a twenty thirty four year old that they got to keep working so that
rich Americans can have money to pay their second club and have no medical expenses.
It doesn't make fiscal sense to me. And it's got to stop.
We all know it's going to stop, one way or another. It's going
to stop like Zimbabwe, in which the leadership of Zimbabwe was printing at one
point trillion dollars bills, a trillion dollars. And that's what's happening in America
right now, is that our fiscal house is completely out of order. It's
a scam. And there's no one on my side of the fence in my
age group speaking like I'm speaking, because you know, you can't get elected
electorally if you say the nation's fiscal house must be brought in order. When
nineteen thirty four, when Jim Scott started a WSAI, at that point,
the average American lived to be sixty three years old, so those who made
it to sixty five were the minority, and after World War Two the number
even got worse. From that point goes about a half million Americans of a
younger set were killed during murdered during World War two. And so right now
the average age of a woman life expectancy is seventy nine and a man is
seventy seven. And so it makes no fiscal sense for Scott Reinhardt and for
Scott Sloan to be paying all these Social Security taxes when they know they're not
going to collect their money anyway. You ask a twenty five or thirty five
year old about Social Security and they'll freely will tell you we're not gonna have
any It will not be there whatsoever. So we need an adult conversation,
and I think those of my generation are more than willing to have it,
So hopefully tonight the Congress will start. It really is not a cut in
anything, it's a slowing of the rate of increase when there needs to be
a cut. And no one on the Democratic side wants to engage in any
of these politics. And most people on the right, including Donald Trump,
who cowers before the old of old folks when he says, quote, no
one will lay a hand on your Medicare or Social Security, which is the
driver of the deficit along with defense spending. Why do we have seven hundred
military bases and one hundred countries? Shocking? When I spend some time in
the Pentagon with Chairman the Joint Chiefs, Peter Pace, and I broadcasted from
the middle of that little park in the middle of Pentagon, he related,
there's about seven hundred military bases and a hundred different countries all over the world.
Why I'm not sure that needs to be cut. We need to live
within our means and quit borrowing every year anywhere between one and three trillion dollars
a brand new money, because the bills will come home at some point.
Social Security is going bust. Medicare free, medicaid for all who make it
to this country is going to go bust. We can't afford it. It
must stop. And anyone who touches rail in American politics tends to get electrocuted.
But nonetheless, I have an example of when one of the great writers
at Newsweek said that I got a notice I had an MRI that costs two
thousand, six hundred and twenty five dollars, and I had to pay eighty
three dollars in the sixty five cents of a twenty six hundred dollar bill.
And so that money, it's just thrown into the mix. And we keep
borrowing every day, literally billions of dollars every day in brand new money.
During the Trump years the budget debt, about seven trillion dollars was added to
debt under Donald Trump, and in the first four years of Joe Biden that
number is going to be again about eight trillion dollars. So we're going to
accumulate about thirty five percent of total debt just since twenty seventeen, and it's
accelerating, it's not getting less. So we need an adult conversation. It
must stop. Within the next five to ten years. This is going to
blow up in our face and it's gonna be oh my god, there's no
money. We have to borrow money more and more. The interest rates are
going to continue to rise. We must stop, and someone in the next
ten years. Beginning at this point, got to stand up and say,
Okay, over the next ten years, by the year thirty three, which
is as close to us as the year twenty thirteen, we need a balanced
budget to get to that point and then start paying down the principle because this
is completely unsustainable. Now. Secondly, I got off on that tangent.
Secondly, Elizabeth Holmes, the Thoroughness founder, a woman who's thirty nine years
old with two kids under the age of two. It's going to prison.
She reported to a federal prison yesterday in Texas. Mainly women are in federal
prisons, but also some men who had down as women. She's going to
spend the next at least nine years if things go well, and the federal
system you do about eighty five percent of your sentence, so eleven years in
the federal system if she behaves is about nine years. And I would note
that Tamaya Denard of City Council spent about sixteen months in federal prison. I
would note that Jeff Pastor just signed a plea deal that I'm certain it's going
to give him about fifteen months in federal prison. And PG. Sittenfeld is
going to be set in sometime in the next month or two. The federal
courts act at a glacier pace is going to probably get two to three years
in federal prison for what he did. It is may I say, ridiculous,
whether Tamaya Denard or Elizabeth Holmes, that these individuals are locked up in
federal prison going to prison as an extremely expensive, earth shattering event for people
like Elizabeth Holmes and Tomia Denard or Jeff Pastor a PG Sittenfeld. Those in
prison, in my view, should be the rapist, the robbers, the
rioters, the murderers, and those who do harm to other human beings.
Elizabeth Holmes is brilliant. Timia Denard is a committed, bright person elected as
city council repeatedly. None of us are benefited or more safe because Timia Denard
and Elizabeth Holmes and soon to be Jeff Pastor and PG Sittenfeld are locked up
for years? Are you safer because of that? The punishment needs to be
something like community service. Get out there and be productive. Maybe send them
to jail for thirty to sixty days to get a taste of what it is
and don't do it again. And if you do it again, then you're
going to go to prison for years. And at this point we're locking up
a large number of so called white collar criminals because of a sentencing guideline put
out by the Congress years ago. That indicates the more money steal, the
more time you spend in jail. So the federal judges to an extent have
their hands tied because they're operating under the guidelines put forth by the Congress.
When I think individuals that do serious things that don't spend any serious time in
jail, like in the major cities. And I look at when Tomia Denard
went to prison for a year and a half. Were you safer in your
home? Were you safer walking around OTR? Were you safer in Covington?
Because Elizabeth Holmes, the founder of Paronos, is going to go to federal
prison for eleven years, so maybe she's fifty years old about a third of
the rest of her life because she stold millions of dollars from techies. I
don't think you're any safer. I know I'm not any safer. When you
do bad things to people, you should go to prison, lock them away
so they can't hurt other people. But Tomia Denard, Jeff Pastor, PG.
Sittenfeld, Elizabeth Holmes at all, when they go to federal prison for
long periods of time, we're not safer. But when people break in your
home, break in your car, sell drugs, and kill. When those
who commit robberies and rapes and burglaries and murder, those are the individuals that
need to be separated from society and make us safe. It is so expensive,
federal prisons are so expensive. Space should not be wasted on these individuals.
Somehow, When pg. Senton felt his sentence later this year, I
will not feel good about it and I will not feel safer. Pg.
Senton felt stepped over the line. Jeff Pastor ran past the line to my
Denard took two or three steps on the other side. And one no Young
on council at the time, was charged with a misdemeanor of obstructing official business.
And one no Young spent twenty five years as a cop. And I'm
glad he was not sentenced to jail, not for one day. But he
was punished for what he did. Yes, punishment absolutely, But federal prison
warehousing people at huge expenses who commit white collar crimes. I don't get it,
and I never will. Let's continue with more. And by the way,
Larry Householder and Matt Borg's are going to be sentenced later. They're probably
years in jail. On the first energy to bacle when I won't be safer
If Larry Householder and Matt Borges are not walking around Columbus streets, I won't
be safer at all. So let's continue and never stop. We simply continue,
and coming up next we'll be uh. Put a call into Tommy Valentine,

And of course the Sisters are Perpetual Indulgence, have a long history of
publicly and disgustingly mocking the Catholic faith, including mock crucifixions with pole dancers.
And I can't imagine this working anywhere but in Los Angeles or New York,
and would not work in Cincinnati ride broadcast from. But a person involved in
this is Tommy Valentine. He's a spokesman for the Catholic Vote Group. It's
calling for a boycott and everything Dodgers related. And I noticed that there's been
at least a couple of pictures for the Dodgers and others that have come out
to said this will not stand. Tommy Valentine, welcome, I think for
the first time to the Bill Cunningham Show. And Tommy, can you first
tell the American people don't have much history with the Sisters up Perpetual Indulgence.
Can you give us an example of the type of things that they do.
Yeah, well, first, thanks for having me on, Bill, and
I wish we had a more pleasant topic to talk about, and this is
These are words that I would ever expect to come out of my mouth,
but I have to tell people what this group is all about. This is
a group of men who dress as drag queen versions of nuns, but they
go far beyond that. They do some of most vile, disgusting, despicable
acts that you could even imagine. As you mentioned, they did some sort
of display on Easter Sunday in San Francisco where they had a man dressed as
Jesus carry across up a hill and then perform a pole dance on the cross,
and it devolved in all sorts of debauchery. They have profane names which
are vile travesties of the names and symbols that Christians and Catholics have held deer
for two thousand years. They dressed and grotesque versions of the robes that nuns
wear, and just all manner of things that go well beyond parody or satire,
which is what they claim to be. They know exactly what it takes
to offend Christians and do the most disgusting things they can do with the traditions
that so many millions of people across California and across the world hold deer and
have held deer for the last two thousand years. Like together, more facts
can you tell us about how long this group has existed? I understand that
there are dozens and dozens and major American cities. It's a performance art and
to use the term disgusting detestable. I guess it's okay to mock Christianity and
mock those who believe in religion. But it's not okay. I well,
what, for example, if a white supremacist group went to the Los Angeles
Dodgers and said, you know what, we want to dress in blackface and
perform Mammy Out in Chavez Ravine? Would that fly? No, it wouldn't.
And you bring up an excellent point, which is that bigotry disguise as
entertainment is still bigotree. So this group has been around since I believe nineteen
seventy nine. They started in San Francisco, and they've existed on the fringes
of society for decades now. We decided to pick this fight because we couldn't
let an all American institution like the Los Angeles Dodgers, which is first of
all, multi billion dollar corporation, but more importantly, a group, a
team with deep roots in American culture to give a platform to a group like
this, bring them out of the fringes, put them in the mainstream.
We couldn't let that stand. And so let's be clear. This is an
anti athlic A group, no doubt about it, and anything under the LGBTQ
painter, I guess is exfused as long as it supports that ideology. I'm
not quite sure, but you bring up another good point, which is that
this would never fly with another religion. You wouldn't have no drag queen's stress
of Muhammad. You wouldn't have drag queen stress as Jewish rabbis. There would
be no howls of protests. The Christians are the last group in America it's
acceptable to mock and degreed in this way. As far as the efforts in
the past, I understand about a week or two ago the Dodgers said,
no, we're not going to let this particular group come for Pride Night,
and then just a little bit of pressure came from radical left wing extremists and
the Dodgers quickly backtrack explain why they said. I guess they said yes originally,
then they said no, and now they're back to yes. Explain that
process. Yeah, the timeline is pretty interesting. So we first heard about
it. It was actually from a reader of our daily newsletter, which is
The Loop, at an email list with over a quarter billion subscribers, and
he said, I'm a lifelong Dodgers man. I saw that they're planning to
honor this group on their quote unquote Pride Night. You know, wondering if
you guys will do something about it. So we broke the story, and
then Center Marco Rubio of Florida sent a letter to the Dodgers, as did
a few other groups, and within thirty six hours of everybody, all the
you know, people on our side getting involved, the Dodgers decided to rescind
the invitation, and we thought great. You know, we had a small
ask. We didn't even ask them to cancel Pride Night, even though we
disagree with it. We just said, please don't honor this vile, despicable,
anti Catholic hate group. But then the mainstream media, the left wing
media, and extreme pressure groups started applying a typical pressure campaign on the Dodgers
to reinvite the quote unquote sisters of pre kretual indulgence and their team president Seeing
cast In, gave a quote to the La Times saying, while we're listening
to everybody, we're deciding what to do, and we thought, okay,
great, maybe he'll call us and want to hear more about why we oppose
this group. We never got a phone call. They decided to reinvite the
group. They only engaged with the LGBT groups. Never called us. And
that's why we are here where we are today. And I think what you're
seeing is that this story is only growing, and it's going to continue to
grow until this happens on June sixteenth, and it's going to continue after that
because Catholic Vote has launched a one million dollar campaign in the LA media market
to inform all the four million Catholics in the Archdiocese of La alone, and
the millions more Christians of all denominations, the people of all faiths, that
the Dodgers hate their faith, that the Dodgers stand with the worst anti Catholic
a group, that the Dodgers think that their faith is worthy of mockery and
being made fun of. And so we're launching TV TV commercials and radio ads
and billboards and digital ads, and we have much more to come, and
people are not to hear the end of it. We're going to keep it
going throughout the twenty twenty three season into the playoffs, and if we knew
too, we'll keep it going for years to come. And we're not going
to stop until everybody knows exactly what the Dodgers support. And this is the
same organization, Major League Baseball, that took the All Star Game out of
the state of Georgia because of the sensitivities of minorities. And that was a
joke because there was nothing about the voting in Georgia the legislation passed that was
somehow anti black or anti Democrat or whatever it might be. And quickly Major
League Baseball said, well, the All Star Game cannot be in Georgia because
of the passing of a voter id laws. We can't have that, moved
it out quickly to Denver. And so Stancasson is also the same character who
worked for many years with the Atlanta Braves. Tommy Valentine, can you address
yourself to the issue of culture Wars? When I watch MSNBC and I watch
it, so you don't have to. I watch MSNBC, and they blame
conservatives, and they blame Christians and Jews and religious individuals. It is our
fault for responding to this that we're winning the culture. We want to fight
the culture wars. But isn't it true that the left, the radical left,
are the ones putting the ball in play and all we're doing is responding
Yeah, that's exactly right. I think what you're seeing is that the tide
is turning. You know, people on the right and people faith are willing
to put up with a lot. Like we recognize we're not in the majority
when it comes to elite culture and the media, but we just asked that
we're not mocked, made fun of, you know, made to look like
fools, and we're not going to stand for this. I think you bring
up an important point about MLB and the culture wars in general, and I
think this is a message that Rob Manfred, the Commissioner Baseball, needs to
hear, is that if you're a lifelong Dodgers stand and you're a Catholic or
even any form of Christians and you see the Dodgers standing like this, you
know it's not like bud Light or Target where you can find another beer brand,
you can find another growth store, you can find a small business to
support in your local community. With baseball, teams are something you invest in
from the time you're a child, and if you find out that your team
is engaging in this grotesque bigotry against your faith, chances are you're not gonna
go become a Giant fan or a Red fan or a Phillies fan. You're
just gonna stop watching baseball. And I think you saw a little bit of
that with the Astar game that you referenced a couple of years ago, where
people said, I don't want my sports, which is my leisure time,
to be infected by politics. And I think you're going to see that with
all the La Podgers stamps that we're going to desert the team, and again
they're not going to go become Giants fans. They're just gonna stop watching baseball.
And I think there's so broadly there's more of us than the media leaves
us to believe, and when we stand together, we can be really powerful,
and so we need to keep doing it well. The squeaky wheel gets
the grease. And when I hear the arguments about the cultural wars and that's
somehow the great bulk of the silent majority of Americans put up with this crap
all the time without responding to it. Every now and then the outrage meter
becomes over the top, and normal people have got to say, this is
not the kind of world in which I want to live. I could not
imagine any other religion mocked in such a disgusting fashion and having no response at
all from the mainstream media. In fact, when I watch CNN or MSNBC,
read the New York Times Washington Post, there's little or no coverage.
And when the coverage of people like you and me are covered, it's in
a way that we're responding to culture wars. Something's wrong with us. If
I want to go to a Target store, which I've not been in in
years, so I can't call for a boycott if something I haven't done myself.
I'm not a shopper, I've not gone there. But to have in
the front of the store a little pouch down in the crotch area for an
eight year old girl to buy a bathing suit in case as an eight year
old boy who wants to identify as a girl, it touches upon the issues
of bigotry and two genders, not one hundred and seven different genders. But
it does relate that everage americ who want to drink a bud light or average
Americans that want to go to a target store and not be highly offended by
presentations. We're finally getting getting the queue that maybe we should be involved.
And so for those who live in the southern California area on June sixteenth,
coming up on about two weeks or so, well, what can they do
if Stan Casting and the Dodgers continue to do this, even the Dodgers pictures
don't like it in a proactive way, what can be done? Yeah,
well, thanks for bringing that part up, because this is an important piece
of it. So we at CAPI Vote are working on a couple different things.
We are going to have a present We're just working on exactly what that's
going to look like. And this is not going to go unnoticed. But
in the meantime, people should call and email the Dodgers, and they should
tag them on social media. You know, a lot of what happens with
the best pressure campaigns from the left is that they will get you know,
a few hundred or a couple thousand people to tweet into the Dodgers or target
light and express their outrage on behalf of the left to make themselves look like
the majority. And they'll even employ robots and automated programs to do that sort
of thing. So we need to push back. We need to make our
voices heard. So we've posted on our website of cathol Book or waist people
can get in touch with the Dodgers. We have the email address of the
marketing director who originally cooked this up. We have the direct phone number of
the Dodges and executive bosses. They need to hear our voices, and so
people in California and people across the country need to be calling, emailing and
tagging the Dodgers on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, any platform that you do.
And then, like I said, for people in southern California, please
stay tuned to our website of Catholicook dot org because we'll be announcing very soon
what we plan to do about this in person in California. Tommy Valentine,
how do you respond to the argument that you're the biggest It's a nice argument
to make. Other words, I engage in disgusting behavior, then I accuse
you of the items and the ideas that I promote. How do you respond
to those who say this is you're encouraging the killing of gay people, and
as an American, I say, look, let the golden rule prevail.
Treat others as you would like to be treated. Treat people. I don't
care if you're gay, bisexual, gay, whatever it might be. Have
at it. Live your life, but don't jam your lifestyle down my throat.
Live your life as I live my life as a practicing heterosexual. I
don't think heterosexuals, which have got to be ninety seven ninety eight percent of
the adult population, want to have their forms of sex publicized, identified and
celebrate it. Those are private matters between a man and a woman. But
if you're a gay couple and you want to live your life, how do
you respond to the argument that somehow you want to encourage transgender kids to kill
themselves or you're the problem in keeping them from getting proper jobs, which I
don't want that to happen. I don't want anybody kill themselves. I want
everyone to live their life well, live it quietly. If you want to
have a certain form of sex and private as an adult, have at it.
It's not illegal. Enjoy your life, work, do whatever you're going
to do in your life. But I want to live my life too,
So how do you respond to the fact that you're encouraging suicide among transgender youth?
For example, that is the argument I hear that Tommy Valentine's the Catholic
voes to Christians, the Muslims, the Jews of this world want to encourage
kids who are confused about their gender identity to kill themselves, which I don't
want that to happen. How do you respond to that, Well, it's
just a lie. It's a vicious lie, and it's a lie that is
actually passing life of transgender children, ironically, because studies have shown over and
over again that these mutilation surgeries that these four children and their parents are convinced
to undergo by highly paid doctors speaking from positions of authority, do not improve
mental health outcomes and usually worse than them. That's thought to say, there
might be there might not be some trans kids somewhere who lived a happy life
after having his generals mutilated, but that's not the norm, and that's not
of the science shows, And so they do that as a way of a
scaring the parent into paying these hospitals and these crooked doctors hundreds of thousands of
dollars, because if you have a child who's said through one of these surgeries,
you have a lifelong medical patient who's going to be worth a ton of
money to the hospital or whatever healthcare system perform these mutilations. And so it's
a way of just scaring people into silence. And I think the answer to
live is the truth. You know, we can respond with science. I
think people need to understand the studies are out there and the studies do not
line up with that. But we can also respond with the truth that everybody
knows, which is that it's not easy being human. You know, every
teenager goes through some days where they question their bodies and question their identities.
That's a normal part of development. And some kids, yes, some kids
have it worse than others. You know. I've struggled with mental health issues
of my own, not on this topic, but on other issues. And
if if my doctors and my therapists told me all your fears are true and
you need to take this drastic step to improve your life, that would be
a lie. That would not help me, and I'm glad that I had
doctors who were in my corner who helped me to understand what the truth wasn't.
What my brain wasn't was telling me was not true. And so that's
why it's especially offensive to me that the people in positions of power and supposed
of forty are willing to lie to kids and to lie to their parents by
saying you have to do this or you'll end up dead, because it's just
not true. So we need to speak to the truth. Tommy Valentine,
I want nothing bad to happen to any transgender kid. Everyone should get to
help help. They need the great majority of those in their twenties and thirties
to do this. Look back upon it without happiness, without glee. They
believe they made a mistake, and I just I want everyone to live their
best, fullest life that they can live, no matter what their status is
in life. But I do know what I do not want bigotry disguise as
entertainment to somehow being Dodger's Stadium on June sixteenth, we'll see what happens.
Once again, Tommy Valentine, thank you for coming on The Bill Cunningham Show.
And if everything goes well once again. Catholic vote dot org is the
website. And thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. And keep
doing what you're doing. You're not a bigot. You oppose bigotry. Tommy

gotta be kidding. I told Mohamma, get the camel back here, please,
So she like walking around this parking lot on top of the camel by
herself driving. What do you what do you do with a camel? Operate?
Ride? Drive it? I guess ride it. I don't know.
I don't either, smiling only Tom. I'm gonna say, somebody call in,
but they can't. We have trouble here. Technically, I'm just glad
we're on the air. Has for sure geez. So I don't know what
to tell you that. So then after the Reds did what they did,
I say, Reds win, Red's win. Now exhale if they would have
lost that game last all. Now, what about a leader of the Reds
telling me the old man once Della Cruz Friday night, Well, he cracked
a two run homer last night and the bother of the night to win the
Bats game. It's still going up. I think it went off the JFK
Bridge over there in Louisville. One of the owners of the red said,
why is he doing it in Louisville and not doing it in Cincinnati? One
might ask the question, where is he gonna play? Who cares? I
don't think McClean. You can't play shortstop. No, you can't play second,
No can't play first. Why not teach him first base? He's a
nice tall kid. How about third? I mean six four? Why doesn't
he play first base? That's what I'm saying, teach him, So what
you're I mean, I'm just saying, what do you do with third?
Sends Zeld out there, Ken, what about arrow? Ken Bruce says,
how many humps on that camel? Talking about humping a camel? For God's
sakes, What's what's happened to? Ken Bruce? I couldn't tell you,

unbelievable. Oh boy, I followed two people, DJ Hodge and Donald Trump.
Is that a lot to people to follow or not? It's up to
you. I don't know how. I forget how many people I follow and
I got over ten thousand. I got over ten thousand followers, I got
twenty six thousand. Well, but I'm always at the bottom of the list.
And in the background you can see down take at seven hundred, wllw

yeah. Yeah. You can see it was hot over there, right,
You said it was hot, well, Massado Dead Sea was one hundred.
Yeah. Probably that day in Jerusalem is probably eighty eighty five or not too
bad. But it's a good looking camel. I like that camel. I
mean, worry about the camel? Well, what do you do? It
is his name sweet Lips, Sweet lips they call him. Oh he got
down on his knees to let us up and then he stood up and that
was the Look how high off the ground? You're what seven eight nine feet
a high? Ten feet up? I think it's on the camel. Ten
feet on a camel. Never rode a camel. Imagine that thing rumbling through
the desert and you're just up there like, believe me, you move with
it too. It's ding go. It's like it's like rip wheel or a
yellowstone. I love it that. I love that you get your ribs broken
in one hump and then you're back broken and the other going back and forth.

June first, we're giving So this morning, I'm quietly in the modified palatial
estate, have my three mont for his TV set up monitoring all events simultaneously
throughout the world. ESPN have the Reds and the Hunt for a playoff spot.
And I'm looking at this going well, they're eight games better now than
last year. At exactly the same time, they look impregnable and unbeatable.
Dela Cruz, the second coming perhaps of Eric Davis, continues to light them
up in Louisville and elsewhere. So, mo, if I had told you
during my great speech and Red's opening day, that was cut short once again,
Cordis interrupted us at the Holy Grail that the Reds come June first would
be in the hunt and the playoffs. Would you have been drug tested?
No, Look, the Reds don't have a great record, but they certainly
aren't a better spot from a win lost percentage perspective than they were a year
ago at this time. They hit the third pole one third poll last night.
The run paced win seventy five games, which we like, which is
much better than last year when they won sixty two games. But the good
news is doesn't look like anybody wants to win this division. The Cardinals are
in last place. They've played better recently, but they're in last place.
The Chicago Cubs aren't good. The Pittsburgh Pirates were the talk of baseball for
the first two and a half weeks, but the bloom has come off that
rose as we say, and the Milwaukee Brewers are probably the best team in
this division. They're in first place right now. They've had all sorts of
issues scoring runs. They've had injuries in the starting rotation, and they really
missed two relief pitchers that they gave up on that I'm still not sure why
they did. The division is wide open. The division is open, and
I think it's going to be fun this weekend. Let's see if the Reds
can maybe hold serve these next two nights in Boston. They get a chance
to play the Brewers four straight starting on Friday night, so they'll have a
chance to make a dent. They're playing well, the young players are starting
to show some promise, and things are pointing in the right direction for the
Cincinnati Reds and it's a lot of fun. Are you ready for the big
question? Early on? I'm sure Ellie Ela Cruz appears to be the most
exciting ball player the Rents have had since Roldis Chapman coming out of the bullpen
ten years ago. I don't think there's ever been a more highly touted,
more hype prospered ever in the history of the franchise. I mean, look,
I remember Joey Vado's call up, I remember j Bruce's call up,
Johnny Quato or Roldis Chapman, Homer Bailey, I remember all those guys.
I remember all the guys in the eighties. Just given the tools that we
have right now, you could watch Ela Della Cruise play at the minor league
level. I'd like to watch him play in Cincinnati. He is ranked by
ESPN and others in the know as the best prospect in all of baseball,
and last night he had a four hundred and thirty two foot walk off homer
on a pitch that registered ninety eight miles an hour without even trying. He
has elite exit velocity, he has elite speed, he has an elite throwing
arm. From a physical standpoint, he has every single tool you could ask
for, and he has gotten better in the one area that it was you
know, sort of stated in spring training, this is why he has to
go to the minor leagues. He's got to be more selective. He's got
to take more walks. He can't be his free a swinger. He is
still a free swinger, but he is being a little bit more selective.
He's demonstrating a good batting eye and I can't wait to watch him. You
may not know it, but baseball is also a business. Ticket sales against
the Brewers, shall we say, are not particularly strong. Well, Friday
is great because there's a postgame concert. Is that Zach Brown band? He's
pretty good. I like Zach Brown. But nonetheless, you're gonna be there.
No, I want to go. No, Nonetheless, Saturday and Sunday.
If you brought up Dalla Cruz, you would fill up Friday night and
if he did anything, Saturday would be twenty five to thirty, Sunday would
be fifteen to twenty. And if you're looking at it, maybe in an
extra fifty thousand dollars in ticket sales with all the accouitiments, maybe a million
dollars. Why not bring him up? Now? I know the argument,
make the argument not to do it. I can't because I don't get it.
How How is your team not better if you bring him up? Because
the answer can't be we can't find room for him. If he's as great
as everybody says, you find room for him and you figure out the rest
of the pieces elsewhere. I would have brought him up three weeks ago.
I understand them not starting the season with him in Cincinnati, but when he
is demonstrating all the physical tools the people have slobbered over for two years,
and he's gotten better in the one area that they said he had to get
better. And your team from an offensive perspective, has been below league average
all season long. They've been better over the last week or so. I
don't have the argument for not bringing him up. Let me give you the
argument. Please, if you bring up a kid so untested on major league
pitching as a twenty one year old, you destroy his confidence. Then you
live with it. But the sports failure is baked into the sport. Failure
is really baked into the sport for for rookies. Do we think he is?
He is the franchise, He is the number one prospect in an all
of baseball. I've got to think a part of that reasoning is that you
like his makeup. You like his mental makeup, you like his emotional makeup.
If you're not gonna bring him up because you think he's gonna mentally fall
apart ten games into his big league career, what are we doing? So
maybe he does? And then guess what. There's a long list of guys
who have struggled when they first got here that have gone on to have very
good rookie seasons and long term success. I would like to get that out
of the way. If you say, look baked in, there's going to
be some growing pains. Good, Let's get him out of the way now
so that we can watch the dude with all that behind him later this season
and deeper into his career. You cannot convince me that you have a guy
with all these dudes, all this dude's physical gifts, but you're worried about
his fragile psyche. How about the fragile psyche of a Reds fan who's been
waiting twenty twenty eight years to watch his team advanced in the postseason. My
psyche is fragile to hell with Ellie deler Cruz. Call him up because my
psyche can't handle watching Kevin Newton. Nothing against Kevin Newman, who's been a
nice piece starting lineup tonight, I'd rather watch Elie Dela Cruz bring him up
in the middle of a Pennant drive. Yes, it's the Zach Brown Band.
It's a Friday night, there's a packed house. You got kid's gonna
strike out four times and he won't be able to find I'd be dropping balls,
I guess. In the outfield, McClean is a shortstop for as far
as I can see. And what do you put him in the lineup?
You can't find a place in the lineup. So that's where we are right
now. The Reds have too many good players. Is that where we are.
They're so good they're they're in the they have too many good players they
can't bring there in the number one prospect and all the baseball Look, Ellie
Dela Cruz hasn't played an inning in the outfield in the minor leagues, so
he's a shortstop. So you're gonna have to move McClean somewhere, likely to
second base. Move McClean. So then a player of the week, right,
this is a good problem to have. So then what do you do
with Jonathan Jonathan? What do you do with him? What do you do?
Do you play me every year? Do you play him at first base?
What about sends out? What about Vado? Put him in left field?
Well, Vado is not even close to coming back, so I'm not
too worried about him. But I mean this sort of highlights why it's I
think, a pretty fun time to be a Reds fan, because there's options.
There's almost too many good players. You're gonna tell me there's no room
for the number one prospect in baseball, tell me a pretty damn good roster.
But I mean, looking at it from this dandpoint, you just mentioned
Matt mcclin. They called him up two weeks later National League Player of the
Week Hunter Green on Friday through six no hit innings. He was he was
dominant. You're getting good performances from those guys. Spencer Steer, what he's
done. Spencer Steer, I think can make a push to be the rookie
of the year this season. Jonathan India is having a very nice bounce back
year. Hew Jose Berrero, who is as frustrating as anybody on the team,
hits one over the Green Monster last night. The younger guys are starting
to show what they can do. Let's bring up one more and how did
Della Cruz do in spring training? D you have any idea fine? Did
he hit home runs? That was he overwhelmed by major league pitching to a
degree? Sure? Look when he when he got healthy, because remember he
missed the start of the season. He started off miserable at Louisville this year.
Slumps are a part of the sport. Uh, You're supposed to be
able to handle them, whether they come earlier in your career or later.
So that's why we're not gonna bring up because you're afraid he's gonna fail.
How about this, gets psyche, how about this he might succeed. How
about this he might have can't he might actually come up and be a success.
How about that? Why aren't we assuming the worst he's gonna cry and
fall apart and need to go through psychiatric counseling because he has a bad first
week. How about that first week? Maybe he's good. Maybe he's like
Jay Bruce was four hits in his first big league game, walk off homer
in his fifth big league start. Maybe that sort of thing happens. How
about you? How about you wager on the upside and prepare for the downside.
How about why hasn't he played the outfield at all in the minor leagues
because they think his athleticism is best to use the shortstop, where you can
combine McLean, Ellie Dela Cruz, Matt McClean played some shortstop Louisville. But
Matt McLean's five foot eight. He's got to make up. So you're you're
not putting him at first base base, You're probably not putting him at third
base, first base. He's tall and lanky. Elladela Cruz, Yeah,
because I think they want to take advantage of his elite athleticism at shortstop.
Now, ultimately they have a thousand shortstops at the minor league level. That's
a good problem to have. They view him right now. He's got the
build of O'Neill Cruise, who's with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Unfortunately has been hurt
this season, but he's got basically the same tall, kind of lanky build.
They think they could take advantage of his athleticism at what many would argue
was the most important position on the field. How about McLean. You know,
India is not much of an defensive player, but he made some good
plays last night, So I mean, I'm putting him a third The India
thing is interesting. So India played third base at college. There's concerns about
his throwing arm. Is that going to translate to the big league level at
third base? You could maybe put him in left field. And what I
would argue there is the Reds have been more than happy to have deficient players
in left field. Defensively, Adam Done, Johnny Golm's, Jesse Winker just
to name a few. Is India's offense going to be good enough for you
to put up with what he can't do? Defensively? Could you play him
at first base? Perhaps? You know he's about five foot eleven, maybe
five ten and a half. There's perhaps room for him. There there is
a DH in the National League. I think it's gonna be really interesting this
offseason, Willie, and I know a lot of folks aren't gonna want to
hear this. Do they view Jonathan India as a tradeable commodity who's gonna get
a pay raise this coming off season, a tradeable commodity with which they could
part and get a lot in return. You got three years of team control
if you trade for Jonathan India. He's having a good year this year.
But look, at some point they're going to deal from their surplus. That's
what you do. When the retch went forward in twenty twelve, what did
they do well? They had too many first basemen. They had Yonder Alonzo
and Joey Vado. So they said to Yonder Alonzo, we're going to trade
you to the Padres. They had too many catchers. They had Devin Mezzeracco
coming up. They had Yazmoney grand Dog coming up. Is we got too
many catchers, We're gonna put Yaz Money grandall in a trade package. Boy,
we've got too many relief pitchers. We're gonna take brad Boxburger. We're
gonna put him in a trade package. What did they get for those three
guys plus Edinson Volquez Matt Latos who was a big part of that team in
twenty twelve that ran away with the National League Central So what do you what
do you want to do? You're going to deal from if the Reds win
the World Series in two years. Chances are again, if the Reds win
the World Series in two years, which is what we all hope, right
If they win the World Series in two years, my guess is there will
be somebody who has a hand in that who is currently playing for another team,
and the most likely way they acquire that guy is via trade. And
what you trade to get that guy is something you have too much of right
now. The Reds might have too many really good infielders. So at the
trade deadline, the Reds maybe at the end of July first of August,
looking at going all in in a sense to win the World Series this year.
I don't think that would involve a Jonathan India trade. I think that
could happen this offseason. But if come July first this team is where it
is in relation to first place, there's a difference between being in bimode and
being all in all in means, you know, throw caution to the win.
We'll mortgage our future. I don't think they're going to do that,
but I do think you can be in by mode and make your team better
and go for it. Why not. That's a good stretch the next four
or five years. Pittsburgh's gonna be Pittsburgh. Saint Louis's continueing on the downslide,
Chicago is not even close, and Milwaukee's on the other side of being
pretty good. This is the time for the Reds to maximize what they have
and to win now, because you may think, let's win in two years.
All of a sudden, the Reds find themselves in a position saying,
why not now? And if it's now, get the best players you have
throughout your organization. Put them at the Great American Ballpark. That's a great
ballpark for a kid to hit in Dela Cruz, a wonderful ballpark. Why
not bring him up? And if he's destroyed mentally as you are, so
be it. Yeah, I'm destroyed mentally for a lot of reasons. Are
there twenty six players better than Elie Dela Cruz who play in the Reds organization
right now, the answer is no. But frankly the answer is no.
So but the good news is we're talking about wanting to see Elie de la
Cruz and the Reds aren't, you know, twelve and thirty two or something
like that. They're in it. They're in it, and so obviously there's
I think, just sort of the built in curiosity we all want to see
the guy in person, and then there as well, let's let's go ahead
and get a jump start in his development at the major league level. There's
that, but there's also he can make the team better for the purposes of
getting to the postseason this year. That's not it's probably not likely, but
it's not that far fetched to suggest. And to even say that, compared
to how a lot of people felt about this team in mid March is pretty
remarkable. Yeah, right in the mid March, it was ugly. The
Natives are quite unhappy. The Vegas over under was ninety six and a half.
Right now they're on pace to win seventy five. That's not a great
number. But if you took a if you bought an over ticket, you're
feeling pretty good right now. I did, and you did yes, we'll
see what happens. Yes, we will. So let's say Friday night this
weekend. You coming, We'll come to the ballpark five o'clock game. You
get off the air at three o'clock, five ten game, early game.
I took the day off work. I'll get down to the grail of a
couple of pre game beers, and then we'll go over to the game,
and then we'll watch a Zach Brown band and I'm putting an uber afterward,
and we'll have a good time. That's impossible. Number One, I'm not
staying for an entire baseball game. I'm not a baseball game and a concert.
I like Zach Brown. Okay, why don't you come, like in
the fourth inning, maybe the eighth inning. The eighth inning okay if they're
winning, okay, and then the concert. I don't know if I'm gonna
sit around that long or I'm going to the game next Monday and next Tuesday.
Monday and Tuesday. Yeah, Dodgers, uh Brewers Monday, Dodgers Tuesday.
No, you know who I'm taking to the game Tuesday, some hot
playmate bunny Jim Scott, just the opposite. Take Jim to a game every

Jim does that? Why don't you? Let me think about it.
It's too far away. A lot of a lot of folks would have a
lot of questions for you. What do you do? No, are the
speakers working? I don't know. Let's continue. We'll see at the ball
park. Let me think about it. Jim Scott, me and you together,
would that be something? Yeah'll be I mean be weird, but yeah,

a report Rock. I don't want to bring up private matters on the air.
We don't do that around him me better or not. But talk to
Eddie Fingers earlier today and he said that you had the unkindness cut of all
and you're walking around with a pillow. I don't know exactly what he's talking.
I know we've talked about your proctological exam you. This was the other
other side that didn't do well. Explosive diarrhea, projectile vomiting. You were
dropping things all over the place. What about you when you were in that
the water with that experimental thing, let's not shut up, shut up and
going leaving a trail down the hallway. That was embarrassing, show, we
say, But what happened is morning because I know you don't want to talk
about it. I got the unkind just cut of all. The childbearing situation
for me is no longer. That's it. It's done, the big Victor
Fulton of her Mercy Health with a lot of attive nurses or some them,
I mean there was. It took a little extra took pictures care and little
extra TLC where you're at full staff for first of all, to start the
day off, I went and got another colon oscary, just to kind of
set the mood, get me relaxed, you know, just kind of get
my head and run and enjoy it. Yeah, well, you know,
at least I just want to make sure my mind was clear. And most
people avoid those. I was what was getting ready to happen too, Something's
going to be clear. So uh when in there and boom, fifteen minutes
and they put they get take, take, then take the thing off and
you lay there and towels are strategically placed, bowing gauzes strategically playing about a
hyperdermic needle. Yeah that doesn't that doesn't count to five. I bets you
it wasn't. Twelve minutes later, now everything seems everything feels good. But
you're not sure. The only issue I'm having though, is I have to
artificially bring my voice down to here, because this is how I normally really,
how do you really want to talk right now? But after like artificially
bring it down to here, well, say, hopefully that goes away,
but hopefully you lost your noise. And according to this one commercial always has
new products for people who have female organs. So are you a person now
but the female organs someone with Yes, I'm kind of halfway there. I
why not just just push all the chips in the middle. Are you feeling
good from the extremities? I mean, you feel feel okay? You know
it's uh, you don't. You don't look any different normally, you know.
I'm I'm not. You know, I'm not going to rati a little
four yard dash. There ain't time soon, but I'm hanging in there.
And so then the voice thing, that's that's the one thing, the one
side effect so far. But hopefully that'll I said it, I'll go away.
But are you now a person with female organs? I am. Let's
just say, I'm somewhere in the middle. I'm like kind of like a
no man's land. So the question is do I. I mean, I
can either revert and go back, go back the other way, or I
can just just trudge forward, become intersects something like that. That way,
I'll be embraced by all of America. Everybody. Everybody will love me.
Well, how long are you in pain? Right now? Are you in
pleasure? What is it pain? Being here? That's a problem of pleasure,
um, but not in an exorbitant amount of pain. You have the
donut though, You're sitting on a donut and you're moving. You know,
I see a lot of blood down there, popping it. What are you
looking at that down there? For? I got an irrigation system flooding water
over the neighborhood and I got to get home. But you don't have that
problem. I guess well, I got an irrigation system problem of a different
sort. It's kind of what we're dealing with here. Are you okay?
Though? I mean, I know Austin Elmo, I guess you know other

put my mind. My women would calmed down and not put this under so
much pressure, life would be a little bit easier. You know that.

scrolling through my Twitter before I walk in here, and I saw a picture
of the first lady he did a camel. He did it, If I'm

You got I heeart meeting medical seat in here with it, but the bottom
cut out of it like a pressure kind of like James fond when he was
tortured in that though in the move. Oh my god, is that is
that the worst? That's probably worst. That's probably when you went through the
sting and the doctor a blood and oh, everything's falling around and everything.
What the nurses say, were they shocked at what they saw? About five
or six of them in there. They all wanted to come in for some
reason. I don't know why. I'm not sure why that one. I
thought it was a thing where you just needed one nurse and one dollar.
Apparently they all thought it was will your supers and six nurses explain that one's
sake? Look at it. Don't ask me. I guess you know.

probably a union thing. You better, you better binge. Watch Yellowstone.
